  • For the prevention of the network intrusion from damaging the system, both IDS (Intrusion Detection System) and Firewall are frequently applied. The collaboration of IDS and Firewall efficiently protects the network because of making up for the weak points in the each demerit. A model has been constructed based on the DEVS (Discrete Event system Specification) formalism for the simulation of the system that consists of IDS and Firewall. With this model we can simulation whether the intrusion detection, which is a core function of IDS, is effectively done under various different conditions. As intrusions become more sophisticated, it is beyond the scope of any one IDS to deal with them. Thus we placed multiple IDS agents in the network where the information helpful for detecting the intrusions is shared among these agents to cope effectively with attackers. If an agent detects intrusions, it transfers attacker's information to a Firewall. Using this mechanism attacker's packets detected by IDS can be prevented from damaging the network.

  • Covid-19 pandemic required all the world to use internet more actively. As a result, individuals and businesses are more open to digital threats. In order to provide security within the network, firewalls should be used. Firewalls act as a gateway between the corporate and the external networks. Therefore, it is more important than ever to choose the right firewall for each network. In this study, a new linear decision making model is proposed in order to find out the most suitable firewall and the estimates are completed according to this new model. Also, this model is compared with multi-objective optimization on the basis of ratio analysis (MOORA) method. This study distinguishes from other studies by proposing a new solution which ranks the firewall alternatives using linear and MOORA approaches. These approaches are used in many fields before but not in information technologies. Thus, this study can be considered quite innovative in terms of the problem it handles and the approaches used. It offers up-to-date and practical suggestions related to a decision making problem that has not been previously studied in the literature.

  • Recently, to use the evaluated firewall is recognized as a solution to achieve the security and reliability for government and organizarions in Korea. Results of firewall evaluation using ITSEC(Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria) and CCPP(Common Criteria Protection Peofile)have been announced. Because there are problems to apply ITSECor CCPP for the firewall evaluation in korea environment, korea government and korea Information security Agency (KISA) decided to develop our own security dvaluation critrtia fir firewalls.As a result of the efforts, Korea firewall security evaluation criteria has been published on Feb. 1998. In this paper, we introduce Korea security evaluation criteria for firewalls. The ceiteria consists of functional and assurance requirements that are compatible with CC Evaluation Assurance Levels(EALs)

  • In the firewall systems of 3-tier client/server systems, in general, data transmission speed is declined rapidly according to the duplicated proxy services in application server and fire wall server. In this paper, an application server configuration containing the proxy functions of firewall system is proposed so that the high speed data transmission can be achieved. The proposed application server can form the dual-homed gateway by means of the additional network interface card. The screened router of application server forms the screened subnet gateway that can separate the internal network. The proposed server configuration is more effective in traffic control than the traditional firewall systems and provides high speed data transmission with the functions of firewall. It can be also cost-effective alternative to the firewall system.

  • Recently a firewall is being employed to protect hacking by controlling the traffics. The security services in the firewall include authentication, access control, confidentiality, integrity, and audit trail. A token is adapted for authentication to the firewall. A token has a small battery within which has restricted power capacity, This paper proposes a novel cost-effective firewall token for hacking protecting on transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP) based network. This paper proposes a fast exponentiation method with a sparse prime that take a major operation for a public-key crypto-system and a major power consumption in the token. The proposed method uses much less amount of modular operations in exponentiation that is reduced of battery's capacity or CPU's price in the token.

  • Recently, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) has been widely adopted to ensure secure protection of enterprise data and provide users with a centrally managed execution environment. However, user experiences may be restricted due to the limited functionalities of thin clients in VDI. If thick client devices like laptops are used, then data leakage may be possible due to malicious software installed in thick client mobile devices. In this paper, we present Data Firewall, a security framework to manage and protect security-sensitive data in thick client mobile devices. Data Firewall consists of three components: Virtual Machine (VM) image management, client VM integrity attestation, and key management for Protected Storage. There are two types of execution VMs managed by Data Firewall: Normal VM and Secure VM. In Normal VM, a user can execute any applications installed in the laptop in the same manner as before. A user can access security-sensitive data only in the Secure VM, for which the integrity should be checked prior to access being granted. All the security-sensitive data are stored in the space called Protected Storage for which the access keys are managed by Data Firewall. Key management and exchange between client and server are handled via Trusted Platform Module (TPM) in the framework. We have analyzed the security characteristics and built a prototype to show the performance overhead of the proposed framework.

  • The Internet is a very convenient neteork, but not always a So.many orvanizations often require administrative security policies when they want to connect with ther organizations thtough a pubic network.A firewall is one way of protecting an internal network from the untrusted extemal network with a mechanism for selectively permiting or blocking traffic between the intermal network and the extermal network. The firewall also provides some limited Intemet access such as Ftp.Telet, etc.Usually , through a firewall system, X applications running on the extermal network may not access an X display on the intermal network.Thus, X applications run-ning on the extemal network are not supported through the usual firewall.In this paper, we propose a method of suppoting X application programs effedtively dffectvely through the firewall, overcoming this restriction.
